We have already seen her beautiful work with the Fitztown Fae Collection. Here is another beauty!

This is Kate's project for today:

This is what Kate has to say about her project:

Here we go again! My image this time is a …. Fairy .... just love them! This is one of the new image from Fitztown and I colored her with Tombows. Becomes so good when you can use the water along with the pens. Have a die cuts from Spellbinder behind her and my embellishments this time it rose, leaf and twig. Made a few stitches after the long side. Inside just a simple sentiment. Have a lovely day, hugs Kate

That's right! You read that correctly. Our GD, Avril, is MIA. She's having computer issues. :( We all know the horrors of that! I tiptoe around mine in fear it will just give out. I've had it since 2008 and it's been fried by electricity TWICE! So I sympathize with Avril. Wish I could reach out through cyberspace and give her a rubber hug! We hope she'll be back soon! So I've stepped in during her absence. Sande will be back next week. :) Stay tuned in for her mini candy! Don't we all love that!?!

So anyway, here is my card:

I've used a Morgan Fitzsimons image from Fitztown. You can read all the details on my blog.

Unfortunately there weren't enough participants to choose the top3 or the winner.Our intention is to use Random.org if we have over ten participants using a Fitztown image; otherwise, DT Challenge Hostess will chose the winner. No one were using the Fitztown images so no winners have been chosen.

Hi everyone! I am a
veterinary technician living in Upstate NY. I started pen palling in my

world of crafts, glitter and glam. I became obsessed with stamping and digital
images.I have been card making for a few months now and loving every minute of
it. I have tons to learn but am excited to grow as a card maker.

Welcome to Fitztown on this lovely Thursday. Ema here to introduce another September Guest Designer, Wio. You can see more of her fabulous work on her blog, Wiola's Creative Space.

Here is what Wio wants you to know about her:

I’m a social worker, tree hugger and veggie lover. I’m also a big sister
and little sister. I have three awesome sisters. My oldest little sister is
like a twin to me, since we have almost identical opinions and ideas.

At high school I went to the Aesthetic Program - textile/fashion. For
several years my crafting was focused on sewing – only. When I had finished
high school I was so tired of sewing that my brand new sewing machine was left
untouched for a long time. I went to social work college and didn’t find time
for bigger craft projects, such as sewing. Eventually I felt the NEED to
craft again. So, I started painting… with all the left-overs of my nail polish.
Since I worked in the social care, I couldn’t use nail polish anymore since
that would be against the hygiene regulations. I made small paintings (in
post-card-sizes) and I found myself enjoying it. Later I purchased actual paint
and markers, instead of nail polish. Then it didn’t take me long before I had
discovered the world of scrap-booking/card-making with all the different and
fabulous papers, digital stamps and other scrap-booking supplies. I found that
it suited me perfectly. It wasn’t too time-consuming or demanding. Also I
didn’t have to rip more seams (which my sewing projects had often resulted
in).

It's a bookmark.I painted the digi with Promarkers
(Almond for skin; Buttercup, Pumpkin & Burnt Orange for her clothing;
Cocoa, Burnt Orange and Pumpkin for her hair). I also added some touch of
Stickles to her clothing (Diamond and Orange Peel). The flowers are painted
with Promarkers: Burnt Orange, Pumpkin and Mint Green plus green acrylic paint
and finally Stickles: Eucalyptus, Fruit Punch and Orange Peel. The wings are
painted with Stickles: Diamond, Green, Orange Peel, Yellow and Cinnamon. The
background is painted with Golden Acrylic paint and Chalk-Ah-Lot: Lime on black
paper. The stitched border is painted with first green acrylic paint and then
golden. The left corner is made with theSoap Bubbles technique(soap mixed with lots of water and golden
acrylic paint). I love golden acrylic paint. Lol.

Isn't it fabulous!?! I absolutely love it and I love that she included a link to a new technique! I cannot wait to try something like this myself!

I started
crafting as a young girl, first with crocheting and knitting, then
embroidery and tapestry.

I got into
Paper crafting in 2005, after nursing my Dad through cancer and losing him in
February of that year.

I started off
with a little plastic box, mainly doing decoupage, then got into stamping, and
later, CD crafting and digis.

I have been disabled
and unable to work for several years, where upon I found Blogland and FB, I
have amassed an amazing amount of friends and like-minded people. This has been my saviour, in so many ways, as
my family, go about their days, I too have something to do, and hope
contribute.

I am on
several Design Teams, mainly in the Digi arena.
I did do a little stint on Kanban, before they went into administration,
that was fun, and I made several projects for their shows, at the NEC and
Create and Craft.

Here's my first project:

What a fabulous project, wouldn't you agree? I love the originality of it!

Welcome Fitztown bloggers! Maria here with today's news... we have our September Guest Designer, Kate Leroche with a card she's made using a Morgan Fitzsimons' image. We'd love to have you leave her some blog love for her awesome project!

It's time for my next card at Fitztown Challenge blog. I have used an image from the Fairy Dust Collection and colored with Tombows. Dies are from Spellbinders and corner punch is an unknown brand. I've used some paper rose and feathers to accessorize the image. I enjoy making angels and fairies just because it has a lot to do with fantasy when you make them.

Have a lovely day!!

Kate

Isn't this just a lovely project! We're so pleased to have Kate with us as GD. She does beautiful work.
